I don't fall for theories Designed to change your views Created to fool you By people that rule you If only to hide the truth I don't fall for speeches Produced behind the lines By someone who's woven Some banners and slogans To conquer your hearts and minds One life one try It's enough to keep on breathing One fight one side But tell me who to trust Tell me who to trust Lost in a world where nothing's real Learning to trust in what I feel Getting worn down by this war of attrition This is my defence condition Want to be heard but I've got no voice Watched and observed but I've got no choice Twenty four seven 'cos I gave my permission This is my defence condition SongtexteI don't fall for penance I don't think God's to blame And if he is there then I don't think he'd care for Us doing it in his name And it can't be random It's all too neatly done You don't make a heart grow Until there's a blood flow So where was it flowing from One truth one proof Just enough to keep believing One voice one choice But tell me who to trust Tell me who to trust Lost in a world where nothing's real Learning to trust in what I feel Getting worn down by this war of attrition This is my defence condition Want to be heard but I've got no voice Watched and observed but I've got no choice Twenty four seven 'cos I gave my permission This is my defence condition I don't fall for theories I don't fall for theories Power corrupts and meaning dies Bend the truth with little white lies No one wants to be exposed So words are purged and cases closed Power corrupts and lines are crossed Wars are won but nothing is lost Every virtue bites the dust So how do you know who to trust Sometimes life is a battle There is no turning back And justice can be slow to dispatch so Lock all your windows And batten your hatches Sometimes lies are effective No one sees them attack But propaganda shows their offence so Cover your eyes now And raise your defences DEFCON 2 and the threat is true DEFCON 1 and the damage is done DEFCON 2 and the threat is true DEFCON 1 and the damage is done These hollow days My thoughts remain unseen The world cannot be altered By a billboard or a meme No one proclaims Their imaginary views Unless they're all the same As the imaginary news Power corrupts and meaning dies Bend the truth with little white lies No one wants to be exposed So words are purged and cases closed Power corrupts and lines are crossed Wars are won but nothing is lost Every virtue bites the dust So how do you know who to trust Sometimes life is a battle There is no turning back And justice can be slow to dispatch so Lock all your windows And batten your hatches Sometimes lies are effective No one sees them attack But propaganda shows their offence so Cover your eyes now And raise your defences One life one try It's enough to keep on breathing One fight one side But tell me who to trust Tell me who to trust Lost in a world where nothing's real Learning to trust in what I feel Getting worn down by this war of attrition This is my defence condition Want to be heard but I've got no voice Watched and observed but I've got no choice Twenty four seven 'cos I gave my permission This is my defence condition DEFCON 2 and the threat is true This is my defence condition DEFCON 1 and the damage is done This is my defence condition DEFCON 2 and the threat is true This is my defence condition DEFCON 1 and the damage is done This is my defence condition What you going to do when the meaning goes You're lying like thieves And you're not going to change me What you going to do when the feeling grows We're falling like leaves But you're not going to change me What you going to do when the demon knows You're lying like thieves And you're not going to change me What you going to do when the healing flows We're falling like leaves But you're not going to change me You are not God And you're never going to save me What you going to do when the meaning goes You're lying like thieves And you're not going to change me What you going to do when the feeling grows We're falling like leaves But you're not going to change me What you going to do when the demon knows You're lying like thieves And you're not going to change me What you going to do when the healing flows We're falling like leaves But you're not going to change me You are not God And you're never going to save me Aus Songtexte Mania
